Getting There
Old Westbury is approximately a 50 minute drive from New York City (but up to 90 minutes with summer traffic!) Alternatively, you can consider taking the Long Island Railroad (LIRR) to Manhasset Train Station, accessible from either NY Penn Station or Grand Central (typically ~35-40 minutes).
For those flying, we recommend flying into either LaGuardia (LGA) or John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK). Both airports offer various transportation options such as taxis, rideshare, and public transit to the Roslyn area / Old Westbury.
